Speaking of The Dark Knight Rises, the first official trailer has just hit. 

Yes, that’s Hines Ward.

Yes, this is going to be awesome. 

Anyone else getting a 99% vs 1% vibe? Can Christopher Nolan actually pull that off?

That chant is already stuck in my head.

Update: The embed.

If, like me, you saw Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol on IMAX this weekend, you saw the prologue to The Dark Knight Rises. And, like me, you probably couldn’t understand half of what was said.

No clue if this was an IMAX extreme sound issue or if this was the way director Christopher Nolan wanted it. But — above is a link to the full script of the prologue.

Obviously, this is a big (though short) SPOILER ALERT for anyone who hasn’t yet seen the clip. So procede with caution. But if you have seen the footage already, you’ll probably want to read this — it makes a lot more sense now.

Hell. Yes.

Update: Heller yes.
